Re: clientLocation no more work

jrgeer...@gmail.com (Jeremy Geerdes) — Sun, 22 Nov 2009 00:25:11 UT

Unfortunately, this is a fairly common issue with the ClientLocation
functionality. It is not nearly as reliable as some other options out
there. And sadly, there is no graduated accuracy where it will return
state or country data even if it can't track down an IP address. And
no, there is no way to test for any IP address but your own.

Re: Disabling the link on the sub title

To remove the link from the subtitles of the Dynamic Feed Control,
you're going to have to edit the code so that the links are not added.
To provide more specific help, you're going to need to be more
specific which title(s) you're wanting to not link. Namely, are you
looking to remove the links from the entry titles or the feed titles?

I have tried omitting url param and title as well. But I'm getting JS
error and displaying nothing.

Re: CustomSearchControl - ads never shows at first time page loads

I am the the USA. I am having the same problem. The search works fine
with manual input, but when using the .execute function it will not
display AdSense on the first execution.

Any solutions found yet? I have exhaustively searched the web and read
over the documentation.

Thanks,

Re: setting new icon for the local search results

jrgeer...@gmail.com (Jeremy Geerdes) — Sat, 21 Nov 2009 11:26:05 UT

Actually, rather than just using the setImage method as you are, what
you're going to want to do is set up a custom GIcon object in your
code and then pass that to the control like this:

var myIcon = new google.maps.Icon(google.maps.L ocalSearch.PINS['red']);
myIcon.image = 'images/googleR_0.png';

Did you try omitting the url param then?

Re: Maps v3 API -- mouseover and mouseout?

vjn...@gmail.com (Vision Jinx) — Sat, 21 Nov 2009 01:26:30 UT

Hi,

If this is not included in the api you may need to add your own
control in there for it. Since Maps obfuscates their code it may take
a bit of digging. I don't use the maps api much but if you provide a
link to your app maybe someone here can have a look.

Alternatively, you can also try you query in the Maps API group

Re: Detect the language by CURL - possible?

vjn...@gmail.com (Vision Jinx) — Sat, 21 Nov 2009 01:20:05 UT

Hello,

If you check the docs you will find a CURL example code here

Just use the detect language URL if using that API.

Unfortunately I'm not sure about how best to handle dimension changes
on marker icon, you might have better luck with this question in the
Google Maps API group: [link]

Please let me know if you don't hear back in that group.

Thank you,

Google allows to use translation API by CURL - is it also possible to
detect language by CURL? If yes - how? Example appreciated :)

setting new icon for the local search results

ioustinos.sar...@gmail.com (ioustinos) — Wed, 18 Nov 2009 22:06:56 UT

I have managed to change the image of the markers by doing this in the
markersSet function.
for(var i=0;i<markers.length;i++){
//markers[i].marker.setImage(" images/googleR_0.png");

The problem is that the png that i want to use has different
dimensions than the default one. How can i change the icon?

jrgeer...@gmail.com (Jeremy Geerdes) — Wed, 18 Nov 2009 17:46:01 UT

Unfortunately, there is no way to do this via Google. You might try
Yahoo!'s LocalSearch API. Here's a link:

Retrieving reviews

luisrecue...@gmail.com (SpainDevelop) — Wed, 18 Nov 2009 16:49:44 UT

Hello,

I am currently developing an app which has to do with getting some
local places. I would like to ask two things...

1)¿Is there any way to get user comments/reviews/feedback? The api
itself does not seem to provide a way to do so.

If not, is there any other gogle way/api to get this without having to
